Question

. Two-thirds of a number is greater than one-third of the number by 3. Find the number.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

the no. is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no. be x

$\frac{2x}{3} = \frac{x}{3} + 3$

$\frac{2x}{3} = \frac{x + 9}{3}$

2x=x+9

2x-x=9

x=9

Answer 2

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Therefore two thirds of x will be 2x/3

And one third will be x/3

→ 2x/3-x/3=3

(2x-x)/3=3

x/3=3

Therefore x=3*3=9

Therefore 9 is the given number
